> 2.7 trillion fish are caught every year, or up to 5 million caught every minute.
Bycatch aside, this number absolutely floors me. There is no way this number can sound remotely sustainable to anyone, right?
I love seafood, but I know the issues with overfishing so I don't eat it often and when I do, I do my best to only eat sustainably caught or farmed fish...but I feel absolutely hopeless seeing numbers like this.
